Cisco 7961/7941 IP Phone Feature and Key Overview

Handset with Indicator Light
Functions like a traditional handset. The light strip at the top of the handset blinks when the phone rings
and will be set to remain lit when you receive a voice mail message.
LCD Screen
Displays features such as time, date, your phone number, caller ID if available, line/call status and soft
key tabs.

Line or Speed Dial Buttons
Opens a new line, speed dials the number on the LCD screen, or ends a call. Cisco IP Phone 7961 has
